The Korean-Thai kickboxing production called The Kick has recently unveiled a new poster for the United States…or the English speaking world in general. The film is directed by everyone’s favorite Thai action director, Prachya Pinkaew (Ong Bak, Chocolate, The Protector), and stars Na Tae-joo, the world Taekwondo champion, alongside Kim Kyung-suk and Jija Yanin (Chocolate) springing into action in the Korea/Thailand co-production.
After seeing a handful of stills, production photos and videos, I’m anxiously awaiting the day that a trailer is released for The Kick. I absolutely loved Jija Yanin in Chocolate and think she is going to be a force to reckoned with in Pinkaew’s latest martial arts installment.
If you don’t know what The Kick is about I have embedded the synopsis for you below. The info comes to us via Twitch You can click on the poster to the left to make it bigger.
